I was listening to a talk on parenting today and the speaker suggested saying this dua before speaking to your children. I'm not sure why that has never occurred to me before! In an age where kids prefer to listen to their peers over their parents, what a great tip that has the potential to completely transform the effectiveness of our conversations.

One reflection that I've had is that in making a dua, the main goal of it is actually to strengthen our relationship with Allah in doing so, and the particular thing that we are asking for is secondary.
For indeed, if our relationship with Allah is good, then the ease, help, and the resources that we are asking for in order to handle our situation will automatically come to us through Allah's mercy and in the way that He wills.

I just wanted to conclude my thoughts on sharing reflections connected to my mother الله يرحمها
In the end , the task is very difficult and perhaps one could spend their whole life mourning , so the strength has to come from Allah to be able to move forward.
That’s what I learn from Musa A.S from this dua.
There was always this sense of safety with my mother, that I knew she was making dua for me. Or that I could go to her and...See more

Imagine today if someone sent you to Xi Xinping to call him to the truth. You'd scoff, yeah? Xi Xinping, one of our many tyrant oppressors in this world, who is persecuting millions of muslim uyghurs at varying levels in internment camps, etc. Is doing something very similar to Pharaoh, like taking away the men from families etc.

I have a Muslim convert friend whose family keeps telling her she is confused and brainwashed and that Muslims worship a moon God.
One time I met with a teen and her mother for a school project. The mother told me she had done some research about Islam online already. I asked her what she had learned. She said 'Well I learned that you all worship Muhammad'
A coworker once asked me 'So tell me this, Is Barack Obama black or is he a Muslim?'

These verses embody for me a beautiful conversation between Allah (SwT) and Prophet Musa peace be upon him, whereas Allah asks Musa about his stick before asking him to throw it away.
He (SwT) in His majesty, connected with Musa before giving him a command, asking him about his stick and why it matters to him.
And prophet Musa responds as if he is speaking with a close friend (and to Allah belongs the utmost example of perfection).

I find myself saying this everytime I have to talk in public or when I have to talk to someone very important, or even before making a very important dua , before talking to the The Most Important Being. Allah swt.

'Imagine knowing exactly what you want to say, but the words come out slurred, soft, or rushed — as if your voice is betraying you. People ask you to repeat . Speaking becomes exhausting, a chore rather than a connection. Over time, you stop speaking up at all.'.

What does it mean to truly trust Allah in the face of fear and adversity?
Pharaoh is introduced in the Quran as someone who elevated himself to absolute power, declaring, 'I am your lord, the most high' (79:24). He divided people with fear and dependency, tormenting their sense of self and community (28:4). Under such a system, survival meant submission, and over time, submission became a reflex.

I used to only make this dua when I was going to interact with non-Muslim family members or if I was attending some sort of dawah event at the masjid.
One time an elderly Christian man started a religous conversation with me at the grocery store and I was wishing there was a way to pause time so I could make this dua before speaking to him.
